Thanks for quick reply.
I've re-uploaded the mp3 that should have been selected first time round (also audio recording is not great, but hopefully conveys sound we're hearing, i.e. buzzing. Not in this recording, but we have heard it seeming to ramp up/down on occasion.
It's unclear when this starts relative to when the fan starts - it's on the other side of fence to me (i.e. neighbours).
Fan has never been noticeable to me, and reading through this forum I'm guessing that noise is coming from compressor?
