Sounds like something may be loose. Is that a top-mount spinner?

My parents house initially had 3 of these Palm Air's it in when they bought it. The first one to be replaced was due to this exact cause. It continued to get louder as time went on. The other two were silent. I've heard of these doing this though from other ones I've been under in stores and so forth. They seemed to be popular in my area. Good fans and awesome airflow!

I always assumed it was the bearings. Eventually I took it apart when it was replaced but that was 13 years ago. I no longer have the fan. I still have one of them and it runs perfectly.
