The wall has a pair of opposed and aligned elongated slots disposed above the open end. A pair of spring clips is disposed in the slots and inside the housing during shipping and prior to installation. The clips are adapted to rotate outwardly for securing the housing above the ceiling in an installed position. Each of the clips has a wide body portion, a narrow leg member, and a foot portion. The leg member has a first bend adjacent the body portion and a second bend adjacent the foot portion so as to form a partial loop.
