The present invention relates to a filter system, extractor hood provided therewith and method for filtering air. The filter system comprises: a filter housing having a suction opening for inlet of an indrawn flow and an outlet for outlet of a filtered flow, with the filter housing defining an flow path for the indrawn air; a carbon filter that is provided in the flow path and is configured for filtering the indrawn air; and a plasma filter that is provided in the flow path downstream from the carbon filter and is configured for generating ozone and providing the ozone to the indrawn flow.
