partially, less than 50%, no problems, beyond that, you will get negative results elsewhere in the house that outweigh the benefits of doing so. You would have to know the following: cfm (cubic foot per minute) requirements of the system (for example, a 3 ton system requires 1200 cfm). Next you would have to calculate what the size the opening would be (another example, 1200 cfm requires an opening that is 16" x 12"). If you block off too much return air (or supply, for that matter) you can cause serious problems on the cooling side, and potentially unsafe conditions on the heating side.

Keep Away From Trees?

A brick barbecue grill is a great asset for people who like to cook outside. Make sure that you build the grill where it is not around any trees. You can get the grill covers from retail stores that will block the smoke from getting in your eyes while you cook. You can also get replacement grill tops so that you can continue to use your grill after you have cooked on it.
