Hmm, you must have really high CO2 in your house then. Each of those fixes should have moved your PH a little higher. Especially the limewater.

What I found worked for me and moved my PH up by about 0.2 units, was a whole house HRV. As you are in Florida, an ERV would be more appropriate. If your tank is in wall and inside an enclosed space (like in a fishroom), you could try a smaller ERV intended for single rooms. Normalizing he CO2 level will almost certainly correct your suppressed PH.
