GS810EMX needs rebooting or drops packets

I have been noticing in the last couple of weeks that my GS810EMX switch needs to be rebooted. The symptoms are that my devices start having poor network performance and start dropping 3 out of 5 packets, based on ping. Reboot fixes it for a couple of days and then occurs again. Is this a symptom of the switch dying? It has been hot in the garage lately could it just be the heat?

Heat could be well an issue, especially on these switches including 10G or MultiGig ports active. But then, a simple reboot does unlikely bring the temperature down on the moment, and then  to keep cooler for several days.
