I turned the central air unit on for the first time this year.  After a few hours, I noticed the house wasn't getting any cooler and checked for air coming out of the vents.  There wasn't anything coming out.  I pulled the air filter and noticed the inside grill and coils were nearly covered with a sheet of ice in an 80 degree house.  What would be the leading cause of this?  I use high-end filters and they're changed every 3-6 months.

You probably have a small leak and most of the freon has leaked out. You need to have someone find the leak and recharge the system.

If the central air is not putting cool air out what is the problem

There's a problem in your air conditioner filter, check it first for any dust or debris that can alter the cool air from coming out. You may also bring it to nearest 24/7 Aircon emergency services for check-up or possible repair.

Yes it is recommended, it can protect the air conditioner from dust and debris which can affect the system especially the air filter, during or off from usage.
