That only means you don't have a big enough amplifier yet :-)
The main thing that reduces fan noise on the outgoing signal is
close-talking and turning the mic gain down; but directional microphones
then suffer from proximity effects, giving too much emphasis on the bass
(cue Jim Brown).
And anyway, the fan noise doesn't usually come from behind the
microphone. In most shack layouts the amplifier is off to one side, and
the noise bounces off the walls and ceiling, and arrives at the mic from
all directions.
