I know it is hard to not worry about what your PH is but you really shouldn't. Just dose alk and Calcium in your target range and your PH will be fine. DKH of 16-17 is extreme, consider keeping it at around 9-11. Are you dosing Sodium Bicarbonate or Sodium Carbonate?
If you determined to raise it here are some suggestions.
1.) Run a airline tubing from your skimmer outside. It will have to be fairly good size so it doesn't restrict airflow and affect skimmer performance.
2.) Dose Kalkwasser instead of Soda Ash
3.) Put a good size air pump outside running to an airstone in the sump. This is the one I ran for about 6 months. It worked to raise PH but I noticed no difference in corals so I removed it.

5.) Stop breathing so much, again not to realistic. This is the cause though. You are breathing in Oxygen and exhaling Co2. More people in the house the lower your PH will be.
