Question about SQL replication snapshot size

$

Hi Folks 

I am newer to SQL server, on 1 instance, we are replicating 3 databases to another subscriber server. For snapshot files, default location was being used earlier which was filling the drive and that was issue for us as database and logs files also reside on same drive. 

So I added another drive specifically for snapshot files location and reconfigured this in publishers settings. After that I started snapshot agents which completed successful job. Now, the replication drive is always full with snapshot files and then next subsequent replication jobs are failing. 

I just want to understand how to reclaim space on replication drive, is it how replication works? Shouldn't replication job clear space once its completed successfully ? Am I missing something in configuration !

Thanks

Vijay
