Reply to comment by I_am_beast55 in Is this existing mounting box good for a new fan? by I_am_beast55

This is not a fan rated box. A fan rated box would have 10-24 screws and screw posts or double ears. https://imgur.com/ldUwkw1.jpg

Don't just cross your fingers on this, you can get a fan rated pancake or saddle box and they're not very expensive.
