I'm a newbie at soldering, so take this post with a grain of salt. From what I've read, it's not a "don't apply heat to PCB" or "do apply"; you have to find just the right balance to avoid a bad solder joint or a damaged PCB. Hopefully, others can provide more concrete information :). I'd also recommend looking into heat sink clips.
