On my slide-out the reefer is located next to lounge chairs in the slide-out. Apparently there is a cooling fan that comes on when reefer is running warm and vents out the side near the top of the slide-out.
Point being, this sanario produces a buzzing noise from the fan.
Any way to reduce this noise?
 
You might try vacuuming the fan and surrounding area. If you can get to them, gently clean the fan blades with a damp paper towel as well. Sometimes, an accumulation of crud can result in fan noise due to reduced clearance and/or blade imbalance.

It's only a few months old and there is a partition between the top and bottom. I can't see any fan, even with a mirror, so it must be behind the partition. Partition is about 36" high
