Loft insulation with loft ventilation system?

Hi all, I have a loft ventilation system fitted which stops/minimises condensation. I have had this for over 10 years in more than one property and it is an effective piece of kit.
Anyway, current property has minimal loft insulation. Less than 5cm. I have been trying to find out if I can increase my loft insulation to the suggested amount while having this system installed. Company I got it from are no longer in business. If I ring any company like them I get sales talk about upgrading it and loft insulation people so far that have been out was unsure. Thought it would be ok if they left a big enough gap round it. Does anyone here have any thoughts, experience or advice?

IS this venting the loft, or the house? Latter, then check out Nuair Drymaster.0

Well it vents fresh air from the loft space into the house in order to reduce condensation etc. I am not after a new one but more interested in if and how loft insulation can be fitted.0
