Are failed installs taking up space?

This has been something I have been wondering for a while. When I download an app from Amazon or Google Play and it fails to install, are these still saved on the device?

Open ES File Explorer and have a look.

I know if I download an app to my EE and install it from there I still have the download in the downloads dir. If, on the other hand, I install it from our FTP server via ES File Explorer I only get the installed app.
