Can these be installed without access to the attic area? I live in a condo, and would desperately like to rid myself of the builder grade fan I have now. While there is attic space above the fan, there is no access to that area. When I contacted a local contractor who was recommended by the local Panasonic dealer he spent all of five seconds looking at the ceiling and quoted me $125 per fan to install one. He did not pull the cover off the current fan to measure depth or do anything else.
After looking at some of the previous posts on this forum it appears to me that the ceiling would need to be opened up so that the fan can be properly secured to the joists. Once completed new drywall and texturing would be necessary. Is this a correct assumption?
