Tomato Plants and Sun

Can tomato plants get too much sun? Will too much radiant heat from the side of a building hurt them? If they are by a building, can you compensate for the extra heat by giving extra water? I have Topsy Turvy planters hanging off a south facing wall of my garage, and they get about 13 hours of sun a day. I am worried about the heat.
