A low noise micro environmental workspace comfort unit for a workspace provides an air flow to a person working at the workspace. At least one ambient air fan is mounted to a wall of the comfort unit enclosure and electrically coupled to a fan speed control module, the fan speed control module operatively coupled to the controller. At least one heated air fan is mounted to the wall or another wall of the comfort unit enclosure at a different place than the at least one ambient air fan. A heat reflector reflects heat radiation away from a rear portion of the low noise micro environmental workspace comfort unit and directs an air flow from the at least one heated air fan to the at least one air outlet. A method for minimizing fan noise of a low noise micro environmental workspace comfort unit is also described.
