Why is my ps4 fan blowing so hard?

The cooling fan automatically responds to the console heating up, spinning faster and causing a louder noise. After several years of use, the vents of the PS4 can also have a buildup of dust. This is normally not a serious concern and will not affect the console's internal components.

How do i test my ps4 fan?
Move your arm/fingers around the side and back of your PS4 when its ON. If you feel a slight gush of air, that means your cooling fan is running. You can also hear it when you start your PS4.

Is it hard to clean ps4 fan?
Use compressed air to carefully and gently spritz dust away in short bursts from the components, although be sure to temporarily lodge something in the fan, such as a cotton swab, to prevent it from turning. Try to aim the air so as to blow dust up and out of the fan and components.
