After recent discussions I am seriously considering replacing my 3b1 fan. Last night, while working at home, it was quite warm and the fan suddenly sounded like it was revving up. Then after a minute or two, it seemed to slow down to the normal whirring. It did this two different times. I mentioned this to my son, who said he heard this and he confirmed that it was also a hot night when it happened to him. Someone at work asked if the fan is thermostatically controlled?? Anyone know? Is this a warning signal of a possible problem??

No. This is normal operation of the fan. Disturbing the first time you notice it, yes? :-) -- ________Robert J.
