Hope someone in the community could help lead me to fix this problem. My solenoid fill valve fails every other week which leads me to wake up to a leaky machine. I've had the solenoid replaced two months ago and it just constantly fails.. When I open up the solenoid valve, there are no residue inside. What could cause the solenoid valve to not close other than residue stuck in there?
Background info: Underneath, I have the two stage filter from Chris coffee. Water pressure seems okay going in and out. My city is known to have hard water.
Here is a picture of the solenoid.

BTW. I noticed that when the boiler fills with the new valve, the indicated pressure is about 3 bar. With the old valve with the bigger gap, it was about 6 bar. I'm sure the higher pressure was helping force debris into seat.
