Welcome to Apple Communities
Fans are turned on automatically when you are using the Mac for a long time or it needs air. You can't turn off them, but do a SMC reset if you have a fan problem

That is NOT exactly recommended, since you will overheat the hardware components of your iMac. Why would you want to?
Hope this helps 🙂
I didn't phrase my question right ... when I turned the computer on the fans started running at full speed and continued to run ... something the computer had not done before. The suggestion to reset the SMC solved the problem ... all is back to normal. 🙂
Thanks to everyone.
