I doubt that your insurance company will do anything about
it if it is just water. I had a roof leak that my insurance
company (State Farm) would pay to repair, but they would do
nothing about the carpet -- even if there was mildew due to
the water from the roof leak. They suggested that I just use
a fan to dry it out read well.

In fact, your carpet may be just fine if you suck up as much
of the moisture as you can (shop vac or carpet shampooer) and
dry it out using a fan or two.

I agree that an insurance claim might be the wrong way to go.
Besides, your claim may be less than your deductable.
