OS distributed analysis

In a Distributed Analysis (when I have plenums), is it possible to have the existing "set-window-to-wall-ratio" measure disregard the exterior surfaces of the plenums if included in the Analysis Spreadsheet?

The building won't use plenums for return air actually, they are just there currently in the Revit model and will likely remain. Just curious if the measure as it stands can or can't be pinpoint-directed to surfaces (or, groups of surfaces with a common name tag for instance) in a Distributed Analysis, or if cardinal direction is the only distinguishing characteristic to apply.
