How do I install rigid insulation on the outside of a wall before I replace the siding so my house will stay warmer in winters and cooler in summers?

Fan-fold rigid insulation is available in 1/4" thickness that unfolds to cover the exterior sheathing before siding installation. The insulation can be applied with galvanized roofing nails or plastic cap nails which should penetrate into the wood framing of the walls. Tape any joints in the fan-fold insulation with foamboard tape before siding is installed.

How much attic space needs to be between the roof and an arched ceiling if you live in Texas and have hot summers?
You only need 8-10 inches. That is enough for insulation. You only need enough to put in the insulation you want. I'm in Arizona and only have 1' between the ceiling and a flat roof. But it's full of insulation. Works for me. Possible help added: A ridge vent for a pitched roof is a great way to help keep the heat down in an attic.
Can I install an attic fan in my building?
If your attic is very old, then it could be risky. But otherwise you could very well do that, as summers to tend to get very hot, a fan would be nice!
