Try 250.104 We Bond the hot water heater for safety, and that is most likely what the inspector is looking for. It may be an older home, that never had the bond on the hot water heater, so the inspector wants it installed.

My posts are related to a water heater that is part of the hydromassage tub. Not the home water heat.

Not to worry, I think the inspector was looking for the domestic hot water heater junper, and as celtic pointed out there has been much debate about the bonding requirement, the use of plastic pipe, changed the entire landscape of home plumbing, IMO if you have a home with existing metal piping you can't control that is remains continous, but you can cover yourself by bonding equipment that is isolated, just a good safety practice.
