Managing sound levels at an IHS, including determining, for each time duration over a first time period, multiple instantaneous sound levels of the time duration of an environment of the IHS; calculating, for each time duration over first time period, an average sound level of the time duration based on the multiple instantaneous sound levels of the time duration; determining, based on the average sound level of each time duration over the first time period, a lowest average first sound level for first time period; setting the lowest average first sound level as an ambient sound level of the environment of the IHS for the first time period; adjusting, for the first time period, a fan speed of a fan based on the ambient sound level of environment such that a noise level of the fan is less than the ambient sound level of environment for the first time period.
