Laptop fan too loud, shuts down by itself, battery drains fast.

I have a MacBook Air (11-inch, Mid 2011), around a month ago, my Cycle Count reached more than 1000, which makes my battery drains fast. But since then, my fan easily gets loud. But the thing is, when my fan gets louder and louder and louder until it gets too loud, my laptop suddenly shuts down by itself, which disturbs and annoys me alot. My questions are: How does this happen and How can I fix it?

The MacBook needs to have service including new battery; also

diagnostic in conjunction with and/or part of the service. This

may require additional replacement new parts to repair.

And this would cause no harm: Reset the System Management Controller (SMC) on your Mac.


And the battery by now may have physical signs of failure; bulging

and/or others, including excessive heat damages to the MacBook.
