Retrieve and edit the ZoneHVACIdealLoadsAirSystem from a thermal zone

Is it possible to retrieve and edit the ZoneHVACIdealLoadsAirSystem from a themal zone for which the ideal loads have been set with the following

thermal_zone = space.thermalZone.get
thermal_zone.setUseIdealAirLoads(true)

I would like to edit some of the properties such as heat recovery with something like

ideal_loads.setHeatRecoveryType("Sensible")
ideal_loads.setSensibleHeatRecoveryEffectiveness(0.7)
