Subfloor ventilation? Any tips while it's up?

I've lifted my subfloor ready to fit insulation.

My house suffers with condensation (1930) semi detached.

Couple of questions...

1) what insulation is best for slightly damp environments but fire resistance

2) any suggestions on what I should do with my sub floor while I have access? I've removed roughly 150kgs of rubble, sand and dust from under it. Should I seal it? Any tips are appreciated.

3) lastly, has anyone used a inline fan reversed to work as a Piv? I think it migjt help with the dampness, but unsure how to get the inline fan to one on multiple times per day automatically.
